There's not a lot of 'prepping' going on over here in the UK???? I've stored essential non-perishable foodstuffs plus filtered water and have made a few 'Faraday' boxes and pouches, firearms are a problem here (heavily restricted here so hold on to your 2nd Amendment boys and girls!) so I'm...

I have carried, and still do, some form of basic EDC (Every Day Carry) items for all of my adult life. Only recently, within the last year, have I started to really pay attention to the weight, space and utility of what I carry. For a major part of my life (with the exception of the Marine...

I've been lurking on and off here for quite a while. I'm currently serving active duty in the USCG and before the military I was into prepping and preparedness quite a bit. I've been very busy with schooling and training but getting ready to head to my next permanent duty station and will be settling there for the next 3-4 years and am planning to get back into emergency/disaster preparedness, gardening, self-sustainability etc. even as some aspects of it apply to the nature...

Just signed up. Read through some of the threads before joining to make sure this is the right sort of place for me - some of the threads are very interesting with some .....er, "characters" posting. So I might learn something here.

My name is Mark, I am 54, I am Australian but live in Africa. I have 2 small plots of land next door to each other, so its essentially one big plot of land. I am by the side of a large freshwater lake and have 120 meters of lake frontage,...

A new member here. I just found this site by doing an internet search "off grid living forums", in case the owner is interested.

Anyway, my wife and I live in Cambodia. I am currently making additions / changes to a small farm house we have in a rural part of Cambodia, so we can start living there full time, soon. The home and farm are 100% off-grid.

I look forward to almost complete self-sustainability and living off-grid, soon.

Thanks and I look forward to my time on this forum.]]>10Hello, My Monkey Bruthas!Fri, 22 Jun 2018 23:43:24 +0000https://www.survivalmonkey.com/threads/hello-my-monkey-bruthas.62588/

I registered my name as Guerrilla Tactical, but you can call me Daladim. I've been a lurker for a few months now, checking out the community and learning what ya'll like to discuss.

I actually contacted the moderators a few months back, because of what I am up to. Then I thought long and hard about how I wanted to proceed...

And in the end, I decided to just come out and tell you.

I'm not so much a survivalist- well I suppose we all are to one extent or other- we are all still alive after all. I live on an acreage in the central US, own a small business and maintain a very large garden and do have enough supplies and equipment stashed away for several years or more. My interests include anything mechanical with special...

Looks like a great place to learn a little more. Not new to preparedness, has become more of a lifestyle.

I'm lostinsaunce! (originally lostinsauce but I mistakenly added the "n". Someone will have to help me change it if possible lol) I was introduced to this community by Zimmy!

I'm a millennial that grew up in the city so I don't know much about survival, but I love the outdoors and everything America. I do my best to stay on top of current events and stay informed. My biggest goal in life is to not end up like the majority of my generation. You know, the ones that walk around...
